In his next project, Aaron Taylor-Johnson is set to star in David Mackenzie’s heist thriller ‘Fuze,’ premiering at the European Film Market in Berlin. The film reunites the duo after their collaboration on ‘Outlaw King.’
‘Fuze’ follows the discovery of an unexploded World War II bomb in a London construction site, providing the perfect cover for a heist. Taylor-Johnson has a full plate, headlining Marvel’s “Kraven and the Hunter,” starring in “The Fall Guy” and Robert Eggers’ “Nosferatu.”
Mackenzie expressed his vision for ‘Fuze,’ aiming to combine the tension of an unexploded bomb with a bank robbery to create maximum pressure in a realistic context. The film is produced by Sigma Films and Anton, with Giles Nuttgens as the director of photography.
Anton will finance and sell world rights for ‘Fuze’ at the EFM, with UTA Independent Film Group and WME Independent co-repping U.S. rights. The team is excited about the project and believes the film will merge the relentless tension of a bomb movie with the heist genre. Taylor-Johnson is represented by Brillstein Entertainment Partners, WME, and Sloane, Offer, Weber, and Dern, LLP, while Mackenzie is repped by UTA, United Agents in London, and Alan Wertheimer. Berrie is repped by UTA, United Agents in London, and Alan Wertheimer, and Nuttgens is repped by UTA.
